When did a country with a T.V. set that repeats the same thing as kindergartners every day achieve democracy?

You have grown old, so what? Do your children and grandchildren not grow up, as you say at every turn?

Why the United States is the greatest nation ever.
It is a chapter from August 1, 2010.
The United States is so great that no other country in human history can compare to it because it is the first society in human history to be founded on intelligence and to be founded on true freedom.
In Europe, which is still a class society, the working class in the 19th century was in misery.
Lenin established a communist state in Russia because of the following conditions.
As anyone who has read Russian literature knows, the Russian aristocrats, including Tolstoy, had their lands beyond the horizon.
They did not have to work for the rest of their lives, and their livelihood depended on the serfs they allowed to live in their territories.
Giuseppe Sinopoli, one of the world's most excellent Italian conductor, who died young, said of Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1, which had become a popular favorite in the ears of the world: "Tchaikovsky's music was a great work of art. Tchaikovsky's music can only be understood if one knows that the Russian intelligentsia of the time were obsessed with suicidal thoughts. There is more to it than sweetness and melancholy."

The promise of a lifetime of security depends on serfs who are no better than peasants.
If there are intellectuals who do not feel remorse or question that their lives depend on enslaved people, who are equal or inferior to the enslaved Black people that the U.S. has overcome, they are not intellectuals at all but just fools.
I can safely say there is nothing wrong with calling Japan's current intellectuals just idiots.
Poor and working-class Europeans arrive at the Statue of Liberty in New York with great hopes and endless dreams of escaping the prison of a lifetime, being free, using their talents, and choosing to live only one life.
After completing the formalities, the immigrants saw the words "Shipwrecked now, on my shores, take shelter" written on the back of the Statue's chest.
They never forgot those words for the rest of their lives.
With my favorite, Jennifer Jones, as the heroine, the United States was making such a movie in the middle of World War II.

Now, to return to the answer to the written question, it is because, for the first time in human history, the United States emerged as a hegemonic nation that did not use its hegemony only for its own sake.
It differed from other countries, which had thought that the hegemonic power was to colonize other countries or to make only one's assertions with the help of military and economic power.
On the other hand, there is our country.
Let me quote from an editorial in the Asahi Shimbun today (August 1, 2010).
"The era of continuous growth is over. The method of adjusting the requests of interest groups, distributing the budget, and unloading the system is no longer enough. The way things are done in Kasumigaseki is also under pressure to change.
Democracy is tired and frayed. We must search for another form where many people can share the burden and roles. Let us nurture the seeds of deliberation."

It is a tragedy for the world that a country dominated by such a clueless media has taken its turn as a hegemonic power towering over and complementing the United States.

The fact that there is not a single weekly newspaper like Newsweek in this country after 60 years proves this.
The world is now extremely unstable because the "turntable of civilization" has been turned into a country with no idea of its role.
It is because Japan is such a country.

I can assure you that no single American is living with such a philosophy, which is in a state of resignation that the era of continuous growth is over (although we are now suffering from the cleanup of the financial catastrophe).

You have reached old age, so what?
Your children and grandchildren, you say at every turn, will never grow up?
Are you saying that they are less capable than you?
That they will never realize the truth, know their country's role, and energize it?
That they will never humbly strive for a new, more enlightened understanding of the past and make significant global breakthroughs?
That they will never display a frontier spirit to match the U.S.?
What kind of intelligence are you talking about?

I'll let you off the hook until Kasumigaseki next time.
But...,
What a tired, frayed democracy; what a bunch of second-rate people you are.
The writer of this editorial has no sense of guilt for what they have done.
When, in the past 60 years, have you seen Japanese democracy become as free and intelligent as the U.S.?

Most of the music on T.V. is unbearable to listen to or to put it bluntly, it is just noise.
It is shallow-sounding music without any philosophy.
Music is a sound, and it is no exaggeration to say that the depth of the sound expresses the level of a country's culture.
Stupid, high-mindedness, you are an intolerable authoritarian talking foolishness from the height of stupidity.

When it comes to music, there are at least three countries in the world where it is not a kindergartener's school playground where you want to be on TV, be famous, etc. Canada, the U.S., the U.K....
Canada, the U.S., and the U.K.
Listen to the current sound, especially in Canada, where many of the greatest bands and singers exist.
They grew up listening to all the bands and singers that existed before them that made great music, and they are creating a unique now, an excellent and deep sound.
That is what I call intelligence, and I assure you that people like you are second-rate intellects.
You have no absolute freedom or intelligence.
When did a country with a T.V. set that repeats the same thing as kindergartners every day achieve democracy?
